Times readers Get FREE $30 to spend on Amazon, Walmart…Right after Yash Raj Films released a press statement about pulling out the famous Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol starrer Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge from the Maratha Mandir theatre in Mumbai after the completion of 1009 weeks, there was an outcry among fans.

The renowned theatre Maratha Mandir which has been running the film for almost two decades had to attend numerous calls coming from DDLJ lovers across the city who expressed their disappointment over the removal of their favourite film from the theatre. In fact, owing to the response, YRF has now released a statement stating that they will be continuing the run of Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge over public demand and that too, in the usual morning show of 11.30 am.

Excerpts from the statement say, "The sudden announcement of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge being pulled out from Maratha Mandir at the end of 1009 unprecedented weeks, resulted in a spontaneous and an overwhelming outcry from the cinema going audience, as well as dedicated fans of the movie, expressing their shock and disappointment.

Ever since this news went out, the Maratha Mandir management was flooded with requests to reinstate the movie based on which they decided to immediately reconsider their decision. Given this, it has been mutually decided to continue the screening in the same 11:30 AM morning show – without breaking the uninterrupted run of the movie!

This only strengthens the unconditional love of all DDLJ fans over generations. We are very happy to announce that Raj & Simran will continue to draw audiences and reinforce the timeless romance the movie has embodied over the last two decades.

What better way to celebrate this announcement than revisiting DDLJ at the Maratha Mandir with your loved ones and, as the tag line says, "Come fall in love…" again & again!"
